How do we do immigration? We have always been a country that welcomes immigrants. Immigrants have always melded into our culture adapting to it and helping to change it. Every time I use the guest bathroom in our Rue Du Parc home I see the words: “We shape ourselves to fit this world and by this world are shaped again”. We are a country of laws including a process to be followed to gain citizenship. We are also a country that is a republic, having a constitution that defines rights of its citizens that can not be taken away by law or democratic vote. During my lifetime there has come into existence a series of ways some people have tried to get around the constitution and the laws passed by our government. One such way is the definition of Political Correctness as defined by the media and social web sites. Secondly, instead of politics being used to influence the drafting and passing of legislation that does not violate the constitution, Politics are being used to rule behavior according to Political Correctness. Do you see how wrong this is, why so many citizens are anti politics.
Obviously, the only fair way to process immigration is to do so by rule of law realizing that the constitution does not apply to non-citizens. How do we make it equal to all the people that want to be citizens that are following rule of law to gain citizenship in our country. How can we sleep at night if we let people illegally cross our border into our country and gain the same benefits our citizens get. It just is not right.
